12-24-21 ‘Twas The Plight Before Christmas

‘Twas The Plight Before Christmas - By Steve Schmutzer - https://www.raptureready.com/2021/12/19/twas-the-plight-before-christmas-by-steve-schmutzer/ ‘Twas the plight before Christmas, and all through the House all of Congress was showing the brains of a mouse. COVID masks cluttered their desks without care; no photo ops meant they could simply stay there. Fraud and deception poured from the Feds as ‘Build Back Better’ danced in their heads. And Joe, with his prompter, was giving us laughs as he mumbled at random with his typical gaffes. On the floor, shutdowns became such a chatter, Aides sprang to their feet to assist in this matter. There in the chamber, scams swelled in a flash; they ripped logic apart and threw truth in the trash. Their talking points needed some polish to claim their tyrannical plans didn’t deserve any blame. When, what to discerning minds should appear, an incompetent Doctor the libs lauded so dear. With his pattern of lies, and since truth made him grouchy, I knew in a moment it must be “St. Fauci.” More dense than a rock, his supporters became, and he thrilled as he shouted some terms of his fame: “Now Virus! Now Delta! Now Mandate, Now Passport! On, Booster! On, Tracker! On, Vaccine and Distort! To globalist goals! To America’s fall! Now crush away! Crash away! Smash away all!” As the left’s agenda came hurtling through the air, the little ‘expert’ reveled in haughty grandeur there, So up to the House-top, the wicked plans flew, all chock full of lies which they all clearly knew. And then, in that moment, I sensed in my heart the timing and purpose of each little part. As I gathered myself and contained my despair, an image gained focus; I became more aware. A King on a horse, with crowns on His head, and his garment was stained a deep bloody red. He was coming for war, and His mouth had a sword, He was fierce in His anger, His wrath He had stored. His eyes – how they burned! His armies, they came! On His robe and His thigh, there was written a name. “King of kings, Lord of lords,” His identity clear, the leaders of earth quaked and trembled in fear. With the blade of His sword, He will conquer His foes, He will strike down the nations and save those He chose. Arrayed in fine linen, snow white at His side, His armies that followed were known as His Bride. He was regal and righteous, of glorious might, and He laughed as the wicked prepared for a fight. His rule will be just, and His reign will be strong, He will dash into pieces all those that were wrong. He’ll speak only a word, that’ll wrap up the fight, His fury abated, He’ll bring back what’s right. I returned my attention to the woes of these times, to the lawlessness, lies, and the folly and crimes. I have a real hope that burns bright in my being, It is coming for sure despite what we’re seeing. I therefore exclaim before we all lose our cheer, “Merry Christmas to all, Christ’s Coming is near!”

Not In A Million Billion Years :: By Dave Hubley Published on: December 24, 2022 by RR10 Category:General Articles (There is a special message at the end of this article for those who might happen to read this and do not have Jesus in their life and are looking for peace and a way to better understand the present-day insanity and confusion.) Several years ago, I had a conversation with a guy in a waiting room while getting an oil change (in the car, not me). I don’t recall exactly how the conversation originated or how it progressed, but I have never forgotten it. As I recall, it had something to do with evolution and an article that was contained in a “waiting room magazine” that was available there. He made the observation that God was “something that man had made up.” I can’t recall the exact reason he used to justify his opinion, but it had something to do with the usual reasons people give: Weak-willed people needing a crutch, and blah, blah, blah. I engaged him in a “witness,

9-16-23 Santa Staleness

Santa Staleness :: By Edwin Tan Published on: December 24, 2022 by RR10 Category:General Articles My one and only trip to Israel had more than a profound effect on my present-day psyche. It might have been three decades ago, but there is more than a lingering aftertaste. It happened smack in the last fortnight of the year. Surprisingly absent were the familiar sights and sounds of the Christmas most people are accustomed to. Hardly any Christmas decorations in downtown Tel Aviv, if not any of the shopping thoroughfares across the Holy Land. Hanukah was a breath of fresh air – not anything resembling a Christmas carol most people grew up with did surface. The Christmas Eve service in a small Protestant church not far away from Jerusalem’s Old City was awesome; songs that truly celebrated the virgin birth of our Lord, which though seemingly unheard of, were a welcome inspiration to many a soul. There was even one sung in Arabic! So it began, my overt disdain for the secular Christmas t

9-15-23 Miracles 2

Miracles 2 :: By Jim Towers Published on: December 21, 2022 by RR10 Category:General Articles This story is a continuation of the exciting things God continues doing in my life. I was supposed to have died a while back, and sometimes I feel as though I may do so soon. But since I’m ready to meet my maker, I have no fear of death. In fact, my evangelistic zeal has only increased, especially as I see the fast approaching of the “Tribulation period” mentioned in the book of Revelation. Insofar as my acting career is concerned, I just finished filming a soliloquy featuring Melchior, one of the three Magi who followed the star to Christ lying in the manger, and am preparing to portray a Jewish Priest on stage. Like I said, God is working overtime in my life, and I will be appearing on stage singing Broadway show tunes sometime in March, so I have a lot of rehearsing to do. In the meantime, I will be signing Christmas carols acapella at a park here in Naples. Since it is a spontaneous th
